So i finished my TAFE course a few weeks back, and am told about this entry level position for this IT company in the city.
so i apply, had my first interview today, was daunting never realyl had a proper job interview, anyway i wasnt ready for all the business type questions. like omg! some of the questions come out of left field and on a few occasions there was like 30 seconds of silence (me trying to think of an answer) i felt like a dumb hahahaha!!
so i leave the interview feeling like an idiot.
they said they would let me know in a few days..
2hrs later i get a phone call asking if i could come in for a second interview tomorrow arvo..... so im happy. yet packing it :) hahaha
it is after all an entry level position with no expierience needed. all training provided. so maybe im what they are looking for, young straight out of studies.
anyways thats my days story. |

You never know what to expect after an interview. Just be mindful of the work they give you. You don't wont to be too keen and end up doing boring repetitive stuff, if that's what they want, that's when u being to dislike your job.
And usually u'll find that it's easier to get jobs doing the same stuff that u've done in a previous job. So if you hated your first job then u might get a bit stuck with your options.
I enjoy my job, but I find that i'm always working the oddest hours, they're never the same from week to week. And I'm always travelling, which is both good and bad.
Mabie I should try a desk job. At least u get to know the other ppl in your company, go out for drinks etc.
Meh, just my randon thaughts.
Oh, and I just got my NYE Tickets. Tiesto here I come!!!!!!:D |

that sounds like the sort of thing a computer program could do automatically.
as in, if you get the job, write it, use it, spend the rest of the time browsing forums. Just dont let them have it :) |
